I recently got the Vintage Keys library from the Motifator store. I was able to transmit all the new voices to the User 2 bank on my Motif ES Rack. But how do I save the arps that came with the library (Vintage Arp Files) to be able to play the Pink Floyd arpeggios?

OK, I found the answer - Rack ES can’t load user arps…

I’m not sure what user arp you’re after, but could it be “on the run”? I play in Pure floyd (http://www.purefloyd.co.uk) and use a PLG-150AN in an ES-Rack for “on the run”.

Yes, there is an arp for “On the Run” in the Vintage Keys library but I can’t load it because ES Rack doesn’t allow user arps. (I don’t have any PLG board but the droning bass sound was recreated pretty well using only the Motif ES ROM in the Vintage Keys).

Hey Derek,

awesome floyd band, you got your foot in a lot of doors !

just on that arp for ‘on the run’

I have the plg150an card in my es rack

How did you recreate that arp ?

Chris

Hi, Chris

Thanks for the comments on the band. We’re only a small scale ‘Floyd band at present, but would like to make it bigger, and Pete, our guitarist, as a Gilmour impersonator is simply awesome!

Back to your question, I was going to make this patch myself, but (and credit where it’s due) I then came across it in the Regenerator Library (D12 - Floyd BS) for the Motif and PLG150-AN, which is a very nice collection of voices.

I’m also using the Solina patch from this library in a four voice stacked ES-Rack Multi for the intro to “Shine On”.

HTH

Cheers
Derek

Hi Derek

yep the band is sounding great,especially that keyboard player. The live stuff excellent, good live mix as well

Yes I have that regenerator library and didnt realise that Floyd BS was there
Time to revisit some of my downloads
thanks again for the info

and good luck with the band

Chris

Many thanks.

It’s a good library and one of the most useful that I’ve purchased from Motifator.

So, you’re doing some ‘Floyd yourself?

Hi Derek,

no im not doing any floyd
These days I am more into chill and electronica , kitaro ,tangerine dream and jane

mind you in 1979/80 I was in a punk band......lol, how things have changed
bought my first synth (casio cz-101) that came with the sz-1 (4 track sequencer) in 1985. Still have the sz-1 but the cz-101 fell apart over the years.
then my music went wayward for a good decade and an half (marriages/kids etc)

I have only built up my studio again over the past 2 years now.

but I love reminising the seventies and playing around with the voices
take care
cheers
